Abstract: Techniques to select and manipulate table borders as discrete objects are described. In particular, a table border may be selected without having to select a cell that includes the desired border. In one embodiment, for example, a technique may include detecting a selector in proximity to a border in a table. The border in proximity to the selector may be highlighted visually on a display to show which part of the table border may be selected. A selection may cause the highlighted border to be selected. The now-selected border may then be manipulated. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Automatic manipulation of document user interface behavior is provided based on an insertion point. Upon placement of an insertion point within a displayed document, the behavior of the user interface is adjusted based on a next action of the user. If the user begins a drag action near the insertion point, he/she is enabled to interact with the content of the document (e.g. select a portion of text or object(s)). If the user begins a drag action at a location away from the insertion point, on the other hand, he/she is enabled to interact with the page (e.g. panning) Thus, the interaction behavior is automatically adjusted without additional action by the user or limitations on user action.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a human-powered dry powder inhaler comprises a human-powered compressible component operable to discharge an air pulse at an outlet at a pressure of about 1-40 psi; an inflatable reservoir operable to receive an air pulse discharged from the human-powered compressible component to provide an aerosol of a dry powder pharmaceutical formulation in the reservoir, the reservoir including an outlet valve; and a receiving mask in communication with the outlet valve and operable to receive an aerosol of dry powder from the reservoir and to deliver the aerosol to at least a mouth or nose of a patient. In another embodiment, the inhaler comprises a human-powered compressible component operable to discharge an air pulse at an outlet of a polymeric pressure release valve at a pressure of about 1-40 psi; and a receiving mask in communication with the outlet of the compressible component and operable to deliver an aerosol of dry powder to at least a mouth or nose of a patient.
